The wilderness is still quite fun.
The solution to the new EU laws is fairly simple. Block any and all traffic coming from the EU. That's what I'm planning on implementing with all of my future side projects and website.

The first such phenomenon that I remember was with Pandora Radio. It is a solution. However, Pandora did that to satisfy a USA requirement, not out of its pure own choice. Is your resolve political in nature or is just a preventive measure to insulate yourself from perceived trouble?

It is both political AND preventative. I'm not going to bother following rules and regulations for a small userbase. It is easier to just block them entirely and have them deal with the consequences.
Yes, it's tough. Try to build a car company. Or a toys company. Or really, any kind of consumer goods company you may think of. They all bring with them that kind of hassle as package when having to deal with masses. The masses wanted better protection and they are getting it, everything else comes second. The wilderness was fun while it lasted, eh?
